Sunday: John McCain, Lindsey Graham, Adam Schiff, and a July 4th book panel

This Sunday on Face the Nation: the latest on the terrorist attacks in Dhaka and Istanbul, the broader security picture in the Middle East, and the 2016 election. Plus, a Fourth of July presidential book panel on leadership and patriotism.

We'll talk with Sens. John McCain and Lindsey Graham, who are overseas in Kabul, about the deadly hostage-taking in Bangladesh and attack at Turkey's Ataturk International Airport, the effort to stabilize Afghanistan, and more. What, in their view, can be done to prevent more terror attacks and halt the spread of violent extremism? And do they believe either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump has the right plan to do it?

We'll also hear from California Rep. Adam Schiff, the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, about the attacks in Dhaka and Istanbul and the final report released this week by the House Benghazi Select Committee. What have we learned about this latest act of terror? And does he believe the administration has the right approach to the security issues caused by instability in the Middle East?

We'll examine the latest developments in the chaotic 2016 presidential campaign with an expert political panel: the Atlantic's Molly Ball, The Wall Street Journal's Gerald Seib, and the Washington Post's Ed O'Keefe.

And as Independence Day approaches, we'll glean what lessons we can from past leaders who have confronted crises with a biographical book panel. We'll be joined by Arthur Herman, the author of "Douglas MacArthur: American Warrior"; Jean Edward Smith, the author of "Bush"; Douglas Brinkley, the author of "Rightful Heritage: Franklin D. Roosevelt and the Land of America"; and Annette Gordon-Reed and Peter S. Onuf, the authors of "'Most Blessed of the Patriarchs': Thomas Jefferson and the Empire of the Imagination".
